+Summary: mcs doesn't handle nested attributes
+
+mcs dies when compiling the following test when using the
+ms runtime (it produces the wrong code with the mono runtime: I need to fix
+that and complain as well).
+
+using System;
+class T {
+        class A : Attribute {}
+        [A]
+        static void Main() {}
+}
+Trace:
+In type: T.A
+
+Unhandled Exception: System.InvalidOperationException: Enclosing type T
+must be created before the nested type.
